Over five million people in the UK have been diagnosed with asthma, and the number of sufferers is on the rise. Asthma has a number of causes, and if you've developed it as a result of conditions at work, our solicitors could help you make an occupational asthma claim.
You may be suffering from asthma and have put it down to genetics, air pollution or hay fever, yet it's entirely possible that your condition is work-related or occupational asthma. Exposure to dust, vapour, gases or fumes are common causes of asthma, with some people affected more seriously than others.
Our lawyers may be able to help you claim work-related asthma compensation if you've experienced the following symptoms as a result of your employer not providing you with adequate protection from dust and fumes:
- Shortness of breath
- Wheezing
- Tightness in your chest
- Coughing
- Asthma attacks
If your symptoms get worse as the working week goes on, or if they ease when you’re away from work, there’s a particularly good chance that you could claim.
We have extensive experience with industrial asthma claims, and aim to make the whole process as straightforward as possible for you. Claiming from an employer may seem daunting, but we'll support you every step of the way with expert advice. We work hard to secure the best compensation and care for our clients, and are active in pursuing changes to the law that better protect workers from risk.
Most of the occupational asthma claims we handle are on a No Win No Fee basis. This means that there's nothing for you to pay upfront, and that you won’t have to pay any legal fees if your claim isn’t successful*.
